Wedding Planner - Save the Date!

Today, the guest post is by the lovely Karen and Jenni of Tatty Lashes Handcrafted Stationery who talk about Save the Date Cards!


Tatty Lashes Handcrafted Stationery love Save the Date Cards – but what are they for and who do you send them to?


I think you’ll agree that your wedding day wouldn’t be the same if that special friend or family member wasn’t there because they were on holiday or they’d gone to someone else’s wedding, which was on the same day. That’s where Save the Date cards are a blessing;


A lot of couples are thinking about and booking their weddings well in advance – sometimes as much as two years ahead so it makes sense to send your guests a pre-notice of your intended wedding date to make sure they circle the date in their calendar and don’t arrange something else on your special day.


You might say why not just send the invitations out earlier but while this might work in some instances, most of the time if they’re too far in advance of the wedding date, they’re overlooked and your guests need an extra reminder nearer the time anyway.


The other most important reason for using Save the Date cards is if some of your guests are coming from some distance for your wedding and have to book flights, trains etc. As soon as they receive your card they can get looking for an inexpensive, early booking and book themselves into a hotel as well if they need to.


There are a lot of designs available from us at Tatty Lashes Handcrafted Stationery from postcards to luggage tags, (which are increasingly popular with our couples who are getting married abroad) and they will also give your guests a sneaky peak of the gorgeous stationery items to follow!


So all in all, we’re a huge fan of Save the Date cards – we’re in favour of anything that makes our couples weddings ‘perfect’.
